The communication with this company was horrible! Our tour was “pending” still at 12:30 for a 2:00p tour. They had a zero refund cancellation policy so we were spending the day hoping we would be confirmed. We went to pick up the tickets from the address we received in the email. Taped to the door was a note saying that their office was closed and that we needed to go to a different address. About one hour before we were supposed to board our boat for our private tour (remember that we were walking back and forth in Venice to get the tickets) we received an email that they had oversold the “private” trip and ours was cancelled. So we were locked in to 900€ without being able to cancel, not being able to do something else just to be cancelled at the last minute.
Please don’t trust this tour operator

We had a great day out in the lagoon visiting the islands. Each island is distinct and very interesting. Our guide, Barbara, was amazing! She is knowledgeable, fun, and enthusiastic. She took into consideration our needs and adapted her program to please us. We enjoyed our time out - it went by way too quickly.

Best way to explore those beautiful islands as you can go at your leisure. Get your skipper & tour guide to pick you up from your hotel if possible and have them drop you off at their local lunch place to avoid tourist crowds.

Barbara was a fantastic guide, Murano glass making factory was very interesting with exquisite items to purchase. Murano was very beautiful and colorful, only wish we could have stayed longer!

This was a nice tour, the lady who was our guide took us around and gave great detail. My only issue with this was that when we wanted to get a bottle of water, she took us to a place that totally overcharged us and it felt like this was done on purpose. I don't know, but I didn't like that. The glass factory was amazing and they shipped my purchases without any problems. overall the day was great, but for that water incident.

Samuel and our boat driver made the day quite special. He was very knowledgeable with the entire area and listened to our needs.
He set us up with the experts in the fields of Glass making and Linen embroidery.
We enjoyed lunch together and shared some stories.
Truly a wonderful tour!

Great tour. The guide was very nice and gave a lot of information. Great private glass-making demonstration of Murano, and Burano was absolutely beautiful. We decided to skip Torcello and chose to be dropped off at a beach for the rest of the day instead. That's the beauty of. private tour. You can change whatever you need to at the last minute. Great day.

Our tour guide Stefania was amazing she shared a lot of history on the 3 islands with us and responded to all the questions we had. Stefanie was very knowledgeable, informative and patient. The tour was very personal as there were only 5 of us on the boat. We had travelled all the way from Botswana, Africa for my birthday celebration and the tour was worth it.
I would recommend the tour and our guide to anyone!
